I’m a college student at George Mason University studying marketing, and I’m a responsible, caring, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys working with kids. I have babysitting experience as well as experience volunteering at a daycare. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages, helping with homework, preparing snacks and simple meals, and keeping kids entertained with games, crafts, and outdoor activities. I’m patient, attentive, and always make safety a priority. I’m also comfortable with pets and helping with light household or child related tasks. I’m looking forward to finding families to help out!
Hi, my name is Sarah and I have 15 years of experience working with children, teens and people with disabilities. I also love to babysit my nieces and nephews. I am CPR certified and training in ABA/behavior therapy.
Hi - My name is Serena and I'm currently sophomore at George Mason University. I am offering child care and pet care. I enjoy being a helping hand to others thanks to the many parents in my family that needed assistance whether that be with their children or watching over their household. Thanks to this, I have experience with infants, toddlers, and kids. I am capable of driving to and from activities and cooking meals. Also (being a pet owner myself), I have experience taking care of dogs of various breeds. I have a high comfort level with dogs that shed and dogs that are on the larger side.
Hiiiii!! This is Karen, former au pair and currently nanny with over 10 years of experience, 7+ in Argentina and more than 3 in the U. S. And CPR trained. I've cared for kids of all ages, from babies to teenagers, and I love supporting their growth through fun activities, routines, and patience. As a reference, I've been taking care of my youngest host kid since he was 7 months old and he's 4 years old now! :) I'm also a college student nowadays, and I'm looking for an extra job this time since I'll be available from 9am to 3pm approximately on weekdays. I'm currently in college majoring in Hospitality Management, with a focus on Restaurant & Event Management. Last semester, I also completed a ServSafe course, so I have some formal training in food safety and handling. As I mentioned, I also spent the past 4 years working with a family, and cooking and helping with household tasks have been a big part of my responsibilities. I'm very comfortable following recipes and instructions, grocery shopping, meal prepping, organizing food, and keeping the kitchen clean and organized. I'm reliable, organized, detail-oriented, and I genuinely enjoy cooking and helping a household run smoothly. And I also have reliable transportation. Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you think it could work! I would be more than happy to help! I can provide references as well :) Thank you!!
Hello! My name is Michele. I’m a caring and dependable professional with years of experience supporting people of all ages. As a proud mother of three grown children and a Certified Medical Assistant, I’ve provided compassionate care to children, seniors, families, and terminally ill loved ones. I have worked in many professional positions, but I always return to caretaking — it truly feels like what I’m meant to do.

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
Laura F., mom of two
